Chapter 568

The little guy woke up once in the middle of the night. So, Leanna fed him, changed his diaper, and then coaxed him back to sleep.

The heavy rain outside was still pouring and showed no signs of stopping.

She sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed as she stared blankly at the rainwater pitter-pattering outside while she was utterly lost in thought.

After a while, she stood up and quietly left the bedroom.

As she reached the doorway, Louis came out from another room and asked, “Where are you going?”

Leanna paused for a moment before saying, “I’m going downstairs to buy something. You can go back to sleep.”

He nodded and looked outside at the pouring rain, but he didn’t reveal her true intentions.

Leanna wore her shoes and added, “Can you watch the baby for me? He usually only wakes up once at night and shouldn’t wake up again, but… I’ll be back soon.”

“I understand. You go ahead. Bring an umbrella with you.”

She pursed her lips but didn’t say anything more as she quickly opened the door and left.

When she arrived at the lobby, she walked for quite a distance before she could finally hail a cab at the intersection and went to the hospital.

Just as she approached the nurse’s station to inquire about the situation, she heard Jonathan’s voice behind her, “Miss McKinney.”

Leanna took the elevator and inquired, “How is he doing?”

“President Pearson only came out of the operating room a short while ago. The anesthesia hasn’t worn off yet, but you can rest assured that there is no danger to his life,” said Jonathan.

She nodded faintly and stared at the rising floor numbers displayed on the screen.

He hesitated for a moment but decided to make one last ditch effort. “Miss McKinney, President Pearson didn’t tell you about this because he didn’t want you to worry—”

Leanna turned her head to look at him with an unchanged expression. “Do you know what your behavior is called right now?”

Jonathan was puzzled.

“You’re in a difficult situation yourself, so stop meddling in other people’s business,” she replied.

He was rendered speechless by her harsh rebuttal and decided to keep his mouth shut.
